Garlic Substitutes |Yankee Kitchen

I have many recipes that call for garlic. Unfortunately, my family and I are allergic to garlic. Can you recommend and garlic substitutes that won’t leave the recipe tasting bland? Allergic to garlic? Fate worse than death! You have my condolences. If other members of the onion family are okay, shallots would be a good substitute in almost all situations; just use a slightly larger quantity. If all onions are on the forbidden list, the best thing to do is look for recipes that have lots of other strong flavors, so you can simply leave the garlic out. There isn’t really anything that tastes like garlic except its very close relatives. (The leaves of garlic mustard, Alliaria officinalis, a fairly common weed, smell like garlic when you crush them, but many find the flavor disagreeable.)
